## Resource

Fourteen Republican attorneys general and nineteen GOP lawmakers are pressuring the EPA to classify mifepristone—a key abortion pill—as a water contaminant, citing environmental risks from disposal or excretion. But experts counter that trace drug levels in water are common, monitored, and pose no proven harm. As the Supreme Court upholds telehealth access to the drug while legal battles continue, this move reflects a broader political effort to restrict reproductive healthcare access through environmental regulation.
